The incredibly brutal superhero parody “The Boys” returns for a second season. The corrupt and arguably psychotic version of the Justice League known as The Seven are still living the high-life, and Hughie and his small and desperate band are doing everything they can to bring them down. The next segment of the ugly story continues with “The Big Ride.”
With so many superheroes shows being cancelled, supposedly as a part of the big shakeups going on behind the scenes at DC Comics, it’s nice to see that some of them are still going strong. Superman and Lois, arguably a survivor of the Arrowverse (hey, that’s where these versions of the characters started) returns for a third season, and I’d say they’re off to a good start.
The Flash begins season nine, which will be the end of the series and, sadly, the Arrowverse. There’s a sci-fi trope, a new villain, and several complications emerging into the lives of Team Flash.
Now, the new JSA has different challenges to face, dissension in the ranks, and a new theme for the season. The new season kicks off with “Frenemies: Chapter One: The Murder.”
Now we get a look at another character’s debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as She-Hulk premiers with “A Normal Amount of Rage.”
I’ve been reading comics most of my life, and usually stick with the superhero themed ones, but when Sandman #1 came out, I was hooked. I read each issue, talked about them with a good friend who generally doesn’t read comics at all but enjoyed these, and was constantly surprised and enthralled with where the stories went.
The third season of the very odd show begins with “HarlIvy,” the “couple name” of Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy, who have admitted their love for each other and run off together.
Now it’s finally here, and I have to say I really enjoyed pretty much everything about the first episode.
Flash’s eighth season starts off with “Armageddon,” a five part event with each episode guest starring a hero from elsewhere in this world of heroes. Part one sets up the new status quo, introduces a new villain and some updated older ones, and puts things into motion.
Last season had a lot happen on Batwoman, but one of the things I was most glad to see was that she won’t be alone in the field anymore. Batwoman was the only Arrowverse hero without backup, and that’s finally changed as Luke Fox became more like his comic book self and donned the Batwing armor.
